Aiptek i2 3D HD Camcorder Review

October 30, 2010 By Eric Reagan

The Aiptek 3D i2 camera is one of the first and few 3D camcorders of the year, but sadly lands quite solidly at the lower end of the camcorder totem pole.  I really had high hopes for my first 3D pocket camcorder, but the Aiptek 3D fell short on most aspects.

Nikon NF-300i Meets Android, Goes 3D

October 28, 2010 By Eric Reagan

The Nikon NF-300i is a 7.2-inch digital photo frame that runs on the Android operating system.  The big buzz about the NF-300i is the autostereoscopic screen, which allows you to view 3D images without the need for 3D glasses.

The NF-300i displays are available to my Picturetown 3D members who pony up about 20k yen per year (about $250 USD).  And right now, they are only available in Japan.

Fuji FinePix REAL 3D W3 Announced

August 17, 2010 By Eric Reagan

The Fuji FinePix REAL 3D W3 is the new 3D camera in Fuji’s lineup, and the W3 promises to deliver not only 3D photos, but also 3D video in 720p HD, which is something more than can be said for Panasonic’s recently-announced HDC-SDT750 3D camcorder.  The Fuji W3 3D footage can be played back through its mini HDMI port to 3D-capable TVs.

The Fuji W3 features dual 10MP sensors and a 3x optical zoom (35-105mm equiv) for each lens.  The W3 also features a 1150K dot resolution 3.5″ Autostereoscopic 3D widescreen LCD, which means you can view your 3D photos and videos on the camera’s display without the need for 3D glasses.

The Fuji W3 should be available in September 2010 at an initial retail price of $499.95.
